One way of slowing down is to create an experience that engages all of the senses. A daily strategy to wind down, decompress, and decelerate the day is to participate in the preparation and consumption of a nourishing meal. The Slow Lunch Box creates a pause in the rhythm of the work day, emphasizing the value of food preparation as a means to give working professionals a dynamic break, a change of pace in the pursuit of productivity. This project was completed as part of my Masters Thesis, “A Change of Pace: Rethinking Tempo While Designing for Living.”
